“Feature Rich with an extremely clear display. Easy to transfer my existing setup from the old Garmin 1000.
Had to change as the battery died in the Edge 1000 after 10 years.
Very good integration with Garmin Connect on PC and iPhone using either wifi or bluetooth.”
“Brilliant screeen display - best ever. But:
(i) you'll need new Garmin mounts (one supplied) for handlebars as the 1050 is just too big lengthwise for my ones that worked with 1030
(ii) The 1050 won't do "turn by turn" on route files downloaded from Ridewithgps via Garmin Connect- aparrently a known issue
(iii) 1050 does connect to the laptop to charge or access Garmin Express, but no icon appears on a MAC (because the 1050 defaults to MAC unfriendly MTP rather than mass storage), so one can't upload turn by turn route files directly (which was suggested as a workaround).
As a Mac user, I would not recommend buying one unitl Garmin fixes (ii) and (iii).”
